314: "I'm Gonna F**k This Dog Man" - Walk Like A Man (1987)

We watched Walk Like A Man starring Howie Mandel as Bobo, a man who was raised by wolves.  He's found by an anthropologist right before he's about to inherit millions of dollars from his rich and deceased father, but not if a very bored looking Christopher Lloyd has anything to do with it.  There are no SNL alums in this movie but it felt like a movie we should watch for the podcast.  But we do talk about Weird: The Al Yankovic Story featuring SNL alum Will Forte.  Enjoy!

313: "Farts, Farts, And More Farts" - Superhero Movie (2008)

We watched Superhero Movie from 2008 featuring SNL alum Tracy Morgan as Professor X, in a scene that was forced into the film by everyone's favorite sex magnet Harvey Weinstein.  We're surprisingly torn on this film.  George thinks it's hilarious and a diamond in the rough when it comes to spoof movies.  Ben thinks it's just an average comedy.  But the one thing we can all agree upon is that it's got one hell of a fart coming out of Marion Ross's ass.  So, Enjoy!

312: "Can We Stop Talking About The Try Guys?" - Taking Care Of Business (1990)

For some reason, in 1990 they remade the terrible film The Couch Trip.  Remember that movie we watched and didn't like starring Dan Aykroyd where he switched places with Charles Grodin and priest suits were involved?  Well, they did it again just a few years later with Jim Belushi taking over Grodin's life and they called it Taking Care Of Business.  We had high hopes for this one.  I mean, the poster has Belushi riding atop an automobile so how could that be a bad movie?  Turns out it's a big old turd of a movie.  Belushi breaks out of prison, steals Grodin's Filofax and uses his identity to bone a lady and see the Cubs win the World Series.  He does at one point pull a Mrs. Doubtfire to break back into prison (upsetting the evil warden played by, of course, Hector Elizondo) but that's not enough to save this movie where everything and anything will work out for our hero no matter how clueless he acts.  Enjoy!

311: "Cheap And Stupid" - Cabin Boy (1994)

We watched Cabin Boy from 1994 starring SNL alum Chris Elliott.  Both of us are big fans of most all of Elliott's work from Get A Life to Action Family to There's Something About Mary to his short lived stint on Saturday Night Live and Eagleheart as well as his novels.  Everything the man has ever done has been hilarious...except his only starring vehicle, Cabin Boy.  A critical and commercial failure originally intended as a directorial vehicle for Tim Burton.  Chris Elliott and his writing partner Adam Resnick wrote a script with a bunch of weird shit in it to appease the batshit crazy Burton.  Then when Burton left they made the movie anyway.  It failed and 25 years later we watched it for Saturday Night Jive.  It's a bit of a bummer but hope you enjoy listening to us talk about it.  Enjoy!
